Cagliari vs Juventus Prediction
Juventus come into this one on the back of being knocked out of the UEFA Champions League at the knockout playoff round stage after extra-time against PSV Eindhoven at the Philips Stadion in midweek. The Bianconeri had defeated defending Italian champions Internazionale by a goal to nil last weekend thanks to a 76th minute strike by Francisco Conceicao. They have struggled for goals throughout the campaign, though. They now face a Cagliari side that most recently held title challenging Atalanta to a goalless draw in Bergamo last weekend to mean the Sardinians have suffered just two defeats in their last seven matches. Juve are favourites for this one but it is unlikely to be easy for the hosts, especially away from home.
